Once again not what I said.

I am not happy we were left out of the playoffs. But anybody posting like they were 100% sure we were in and calling anyone who questioned them idiots, should tone it down a notch.

It's fine to hope, but they had no clue either

All the polls and the BCS simulation have us at #11 or higher.


If it were done by computers, we would have been in, but having a committee responsible for who's in or out will always bring in the element of political decisions being made to avoid controversy.

There was always hope and doubt for me, but when you need help from other teams to determine your path....
In addition, I think the committee has made up their parameters as the conference championship games progressed. I think they waffled and eventually gave in to Bama fatigue in the media.

What are you talking about? The vilification was coming from the people who were saying we were in last night. Anyone who said I don’t think we are in got vilified. Where were you?

And what’s up with the selective quote?

This is all I said and got called a troll despite being here for nearly 14 years now. Nothing remotely close to "Gee I hope we get stuck in the cheezit bowl instead"



No one is happy we're getting left out. Some of us are happy that certain posters made complete asses of themselves all week and will hopefully stfu now, but that has nothing to do with our situation

Yeah and all but one of them are no where to be found this morning. Soft people.

Again, your words. Hoping we got in and thinking we won't can coexist. No need to bash either way.

Perfect scenario happened to keep Bama out. Is what it is. No complaints from me. Had our chance in Nashville and Norman. I hope SMU or ASU wins the thing.

The people who were super confident the way the second half of that game last night played out had some serious crimson tint on their glasses.

Agreed. Logic dictated that a certain scenario was required for us to be in.
